Ex-Liverpool and England midfielder Lee told The Sun: “I have always wanted to be a manager, so I know what I am letting myself in for.
“I am not about to start imposing anything. For me, this job is all about the team. If we are going to gel together we need a natural bond and empathy.
“But if people presume by being nice it means I’m weak, they will be in for a very rude awakening.”
